Inflections: ὑγιής; -ές; ὑγιής; acc.; ὑγιῆ

Sense 1: to be well, to be healthy

Semantic entry: 23.129

Semantic domains: Physiological Processes and States

Subdomains: Health, Vigor, Strength

Definition: the state of being healthy, well (in contrast with sickness)

Notes: In a number of languages health is expressed only in terms of strength, for ‘to be well’ is ‘to be strong.’ In other languages, however, to be well or to be healthy is a negation of illness or sickness, so that in OET MRK 16:18 one may translate ‘they will place their hands on those who are sick and these people will become not sick.’
